Jahmyr Gibbs had 23 rushes for 153 yards and a touchdown in the Lions’ Week 8 win against the Vikings, adding two catches for 15 yards.

Like all Minnesota opponents this season, the Lions got nothing going through the air. They resorted to a run-heavy game plan and shredded the Vikings defense on the ground for 228 yards. The rushing attack was led by Gibbs, who popped a handful of chunk runs in the second half after the Lions had mostly given up on attacking the Vikings through the air. This is Gibbs’ third 100-yard rushing effort of the 2026 season. His centrality in the Detroit offense makes Gibbs an elite play every week. He’ll take on the Dolphins in Week 9.
